If you cut your lawn to ultra short levels and put fuckloads of pesticides on it, then chances are you arent actually USING your lawn anyways. If you actually use your lawn you know its way nicer to have a little wild growth with flowers and shit going on.

I'm very pro natural lawn. But this makes no sense

Tons of families use their textbook lawns for sports, playtime, etc

Maybe thats regional but in my experience living in a couple german cities, "textbook lawn" equals "unused lawn" that purely exist as wealth symbol. Not saying it cant be well kept but there are variying degrees of that.

I guess it's a regional thing to touch grass

It may be a regional thing to have grass that's touchable.

Short grass is important for a lot of yard games and more comfortable to lounge on. Wild growth seems nicer to look at and better for the environment but not better if you're actually using your lawn.
